Quintil, a planet with frigid conditions, existed within the expanse of the Outer Rim Territories. Following his successful elimination of the Zualjinn Syndicate's high commander, Tomasso, who operated as an agent for the Spice Runners of Kijimi, found himself marooned on this planet. Subsequently, a segment of the Spice Runners organization was dispatched with the intention to rescue him, only to be briefly held captive by the Zualjinn.
